Soccer feast as residences tackle each other

10 January 2008

Another one bites the dust: Molefe Mohlala of Forest Hill goes to ground as he's tackled by Dlamini Asanda of Kopano. Kopano, eventual runners-up, won the quarterfinal match by 5-4 on penalties
after the teams were tied 1-1 at the end of extra time.

The parade of loyal supporters
that trekked to the L'Oréal UCT
Inter-Res Soccer Tournament in early
October were spoilt for choice - 13
teams cramming more than 20 games
into just three days.

In the end, it was University House that negotiated the
exhausting round-robin and knockout
stages best, outgunning Kopano
by 4-1 in the final.

Top of the world: University House celebrate their win in style.

No surprise, too, that it was a University House player
that topped the goalscoring charts,
Thozamile Nyiki hitting the back of
the net six times.

It wasn't all work, though. The players could find relief
for their sun-baked faces - summer
paid a brief visit - at a L'Oréal station
where company representatives
introduced them to the latest and best
in men's grooming products.
